VEXPay Gateway for WooCommerce

Description

VEXPay Gateway for WooCommerce lets Venezuelan shoppers pay with C2P (bank OTP / token) through VEXPay.

Features

• C2P checkout: cédula/RIF, phone, bank, then OTP confirmation
• Test connection button — verify API key and reachability from the shop
• Live and Test API keys (VEXPay twin environments)
• Signed webhooks for payment status reconciliation
• Full C2P reverse mapped to WooCommerce refunds
• Classic checkout and Cart & Checkout Blocks support
• Optional BCV VES amount display (settlement uses VEXPay BCV rate)

Requirements

• WordPress 6.0+
• WooCommerce 8.0+
• PHP 8.1+
• A VEXPay merchant account and API key

You configure your own API keys from the VEXPay dashboard. This plugin does not include paid locks or trial restrictions; VEXPay is a paid payment service (serviceware).

Getting started

1. Install and activate WooCommerce.
2. Install and activate this plugin.
3. Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Payments → VEXPay.
4. Turn on Test mode and paste your Test API key from the VEXPay dashboard.
5. Click Test connection (banks + BCV rate), enable the gateway, then save.
6. Place a test order. In Test mode, use the sandbox OTP from the VEXPay Portal — not a real bank app.
7. For webhooks, your store must be reachable by VEXPay (…/wc-api/vexpay_webhook). Local sites need a public URL or tunnel.

External services

This plugin connects to the VEXPay API (https://api.pay.vexwallet.co), a paid Venezuelan payment-processing service, to authorize, confirm (OTP), and refund C2P/Débito Inmediato payments. It is required for the plugin’s core function: without it, no payments can be processed.

The following data is sent to VEXPay:

• When a customer checks out: order amount and currency, and the debtor’s payer details entered at checkout (cédula/RIF, phone number, and issuing bank) — needed to initiate the C2P charge.
• When a customer confirms payment: the OTP/token they received from their own banking app.
• When a merchant clicks “Test connection” in the gateway settings: the store’s configured VEXPay API key, to verify it is valid and reachable.
• When an order is refunded: the original payment reference, to request a reverse.
• VEXPay also calls back to this site’s webhook endpoint with signed payment-status updates.

No data is sent unless a customer actively submits the checkout/OTP form, a merchant explicitly tests the connection, or a refund is triggered by store staff.

This plugin also loads the “IBM Plex Sans” and “Outfit” web fonts from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com) on the checkout and OTP confirmation pages, for consistent typography. Loading these fonts causes the visitor’s browser to make a direct request to Google, which transmits their IP address to Google.
